Safe in Soriano nel Chimo

We made it safely to Rome yesterday. Then we picked up our rental car, a fiat panda which is a little bigger than a smartcar, and headed to our condo for the eek. Between the bad condo directions and bad gps programing, we took a 50 k detour. We finally arrived, found the hotel and a place to put the car. We shopped for some groceries, had dinner in the restaruant and crashed. Peggy was up early and Anne later after a good nights sleep. Since we'd had about 3hs with onley short naps, we did sleep well. We had breakfast, then tried the hotel internet. the power went out as we we're loading photos to send of our spectacular view. Since today is the irst day for a bunch of yanks and brits on holiday here, there we're some electrical issues. So noe we've been to the welcome meeting, had a short nap and lunch and are due for the walking tour in 15 minutes. Free wifi, satelite tv and a decent kitchen in each room. this is our base for tuscany. This are is called tusci. Just south of Tuscany. We'll have dinner here at the hotel and tomorrow plan to visit some of the tuscan hill towns near here. Whwn I have more time I'll describe the driving.
